I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Ricotta Lemon Pasta

I've probably posted this recipe before, but it's just so darn good I had to post it again. And it's especially easy as it uses a no-cook sauce!

Ingredients:

1/2 lb spaghetti

1 cup ricotta

1 cup chopped fresh spinach

1/3 cup parmesan

1 lemon, zest and juice

1 lemon to serve

1 tbsp olive oil

2 tsps minced garlic

salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup reserved pasta water

In a medium bowl, simply whisk the ricotta, olive oil, parmesan, garlic, lemon zest and juice together with about 1/4 tsp salt and pepper to taste.

Cook the pasta to al dente, reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then add the spinach. Cook 1 minute then drain. Return the spaghetti and spinach to the pot and add the ricotta sauce. Add the pasta water and keep stirring until smooth. 

Plate and serve with lemon wedges.

Serves 3
